  • Page 8: System Overview

    System Overview Application The PLN-24CH12 (24 Vdc) and the PRS-48CH12 (48 Vdc) battery charger is intended for a Voice Alarm System. The battery chargers are microprocessor based devices that have been designed to charge lead-acid batteries (back-up batteries connected to the Voice Alarm System) and, simultaneously, to provide power to auxiliary applications.

    (lead-antimony plates) have the highest self- discharge. In systems that are continually connected to some type of charging source, like the Bosch Battery Charger, this is not a problem. However, one of the biggest killers of batteries is sitting stored in a partly discharged state for a few months, like before commissioning.
